Chapter 11 (Sayid POV)
Don’t want to close my eyes
I don’t want to fall asleep
Cause Id miss you baby
And I don’t want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I’d still miss you baby
And I don’t want to miss a thing
The feeling of an elephant sitting on my chest pulls me from the darkness. Afraid of what I might find I keep my eyes closed and listen to what’s going on around me. Voices. Lots of voices talking at the same time. I’m unable to make out any one single conversation.
“Flight 815, can I please have your attention? This is your Captain speaking.” My eyes fly open, when I realize what was just said and the pressure in my chest is completely relived. “Due to problems with one of the main engine, Flight 815 has been grounded.”
Disbelief and shock are the only words I can use to describe my feelings at the moment.
“I repeat; Flight 815 has been grounded due to engine problems.” I realize that we won’t have to suffer the trials of the island, and joy fills my heart. “Please follow the direction of the flight attendants for unloading of the aircraft. Once in the terminal, please report to the Oceanic Airlines Ticket Counter for further information.” To Allah be all praises. “We do apologize for your inconvenience and thank you for flying Oceanic Airlines.”
When we reach the terminal, the first thing I do is to remove my shirt, lay it on the floor and sit down to pray. With so much to be thankful for, I don’t plan to let an opportunity pass to thank Allah for my many blessings. I stand and replace my shirt, focused on my next mission: to find Shannon.
As I look around the terminal, hoping to catch a glimpse of her, I wonder if she’ll remember me. Atiya, whoever she was, never told me if everyone would remember what happened or not. I feel a hand touch my arm and I turn to find Sun and Jin standing behind me. We just stare at each other before Sun throws her arms around me.
“Thank you.” She starts crying and Jin rubs her back softly.
“Yes, thank you Sayid.” Jin thanks me in halter English and I know without a doubt they remember.
Sun lets me go and returns to Jin side. I don’t want to be rude but my only thought is to find Shannon.
Before I could excuse myself, Sun and Jin start smiling. “I think someone wants to talk to you.” Sun tells me. Turning, I see Shannon standing no more than three feet away from me.
Neither of us moves an inch. We’re at a lost for words and we just stand there staring at each other. Everyone else fades away but Shannon. My hearts tells me to go to her but my mind says it’s not real. I fear if I touch her, she’ll disappear and I just can’t handle that.
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you’re far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
“Dudes, are you guys going to just stand there staring at each other?” That brings me back from my thoughts and I notice a crowd has formed around us. “Will you kiss already?”
Shannon drops everything in her hands and runs into my arms. The feeling of her alive and in my arms again is indescribable. I’ve done nothing in my life to be worthy of such a gift but I plan to cherish her for the rest of my life. When our lips touch, the world seems right for the first time in years.
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And I’m wondering what you’re dreaming
Wondering if its me you’re seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God were together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever
When the sound of people cheering around us finally reaches our ears, we break apart but I don’t let her go. I never plan to let her go again. Looking around at all the smiling faces I know this is right.
“I Love You, Shannon.”
I don’t want to miss one smile
I don’t want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
“I love you to, Sayid.”
Don’t want to close my eyes
I don’t want to fall asleep
I don’t want to miss a thing
“Get a room!” A voice from behind Shannon states. I look. It’s Boone—and he’s smiling. Of course he’s alive too. I changed everything, except the memory. I look around. They are all alive. Every person who died on that island.
“You two deserve this.” Boone tells us. I nod at him and look at my friends, a pregnant Claire with Charlie, and back to my Shannon.
At this moment in time, life can’t get any better.
